I like the top of screen info you see when using some of the default views
but you don't see them when you select the cockpit view. Can you adjust the
config to get the hud box visible in cockpit views too. I like info like
laps left on fuel tank that the hud box shows. It would be good when
creating custom views too.
Cheers

If you're in the cockpit view then it gives you all that information on the
LCD display.

Or maybe he's like me and can't read the "itsy bitsy teeny weeny" LCD. I

You talking about the tv cockpit view? Turn on the HUD with the '2' key.
I'm talking the "Cockpit View"! I know the HUD works in the "TV Cockpit
View".
The LCD is too small for me to read so there is no advantage using the
steering wheel display over the HUD as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I need to
run at 640x480?

I have customized the tv view by lowering the height about 1/3.

Then change this line under
TVcockpit: PositionOffset=(-0.025760, 0.281553, 0.400790) to
PositionOffset=(-0.025760, 0.181553, 0.400790)
this will lower your view in the tvcockpit mode and then just turn on the
hud by hitting "2".
Thats exactly what I did to the number!
It's a pretty damn good view, and the hud works too.

same as the Cockpit setting. :-)

Great sim - can't wait for F1 2002.

useless mirrors is also selected from within the game. In the default.cfg I
replaced the TV Cockpit view's complete set of parameters with the standard
cockpit view parameters and I got the mirrors from the TV Cockpit view.
I wanted to practice enough to get a few laps in without going off the
track. I finally namaged a 1:48. Malaysia is a tricky circuit, especially
the first series of esses and the series of turns that lead onto the long
straight before the hairpin. I can really appreciate real F1 now that I have
a better understanding of this track.
